00:00Today, Rupert hears an autumn cuckoo in Rupert and the Wool Gathering.
00:30There's a million stories to be told of the things that he's done, and he's gonna share them all with you, so come along.
00:43Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone sing his name. Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone come and join.
00:57In all of his day.
01:05Rupert Bear is just finishing a painting, while Mrs Bear is very busy knitting.
01:12Guffer George will like that nice warm pullover, Mummy, says Rupert, turning to his mother.
01:18Yes, says Mrs Bear, I think I'll just about get it done for his birthday tomorrow.
01:24He'll need it now that the days are getting cooler.
01:27Oh dear, I'm not going to have quite enough wool to finish this sleeve.
01:34It's five o'clock. Rupert, be a dear, and go to the shops before they shut and get me another ball.
01:40All right, Mummy.
01:41Take this bit so that you can match it, she says, handing Rupert a piece of the yellow wool.
01:47Bye, dear.
01:48It's almost time for the shops to close, and Mrs Best, who keeps the draper's store, is looking to see if there are any more customers before closing up.
01:58Oh, Mrs Best, says Rupert, landing his chariot outside the shop.
02:04I'm glad you're still open.
02:05Hello, Rupert. What can I do for you, says Mrs Best.
02:11Please, have you got any more of this yellow wool? Mummy hasn't enough to finish the pullover she's making for Guffer George.
02:17Well, let's go inside and have a look, says Mrs Best, leading the way.
02:23Rupert follows eagerly.
02:25Now, let me see. Yellow.
02:28Is this the one?
02:29No, I don't think that'll do, says Rupert as he compares the colours.
02:35Well, what about a nice bit of blue on one cuff, eh, Mrs Best suggests.
02:41Oh, no, I don't think Mummy would like that.
02:44Well, I won't be having any more in until next week, and then it may not be that colour, says Mrs Best regretfully.
02:52Next week? That's a long time to wait.
02:56Guffer George's birthday is tomorrow.
02:58Oh, well, I'll have to go and tell Mummy.
03:02Thank you. Goodbye.
03:04I'm very sorry, dear.
03:06Rupert is flying home over the common, wondering whether he should try the next village,
03:11when he looks down, and there he sees a bit of yellow wool caught on a bush.
03:19My goodness, he exclaims, it looks just about the same colour as the pullover.
03:25Rupert lands his chariot and goes to examine the wool.
03:29Yes, it's a perfect match.
03:34It's like a sort of trail.
03:38How strange. It must have come from somewhere.
03:43I think I'd better follow it and see.
03:46Round this bush.
03:48Ah, there it is on the ground.
03:50It is a long piece.
03:52It would just do for Mummy.
03:54But I haven't got to the end of it yet.
03:55Across the common he has gone.
03:59The yellow wool leads on and on.
04:02Then into the woods goes Rupert Bear and still continues.
04:06He knows not where.
04:09The trees are getting very thick.
04:11I don't think I've been here before.
04:13Rupert is a little worried.
04:16He hasn't come to the end of the wool yet.
04:23He goes over to look behind a tree.
04:26And there he sees Margot.
04:30There is the little girl sitting on a log.
04:34Oh, Rupert, she says looking up.
04:36I'm so pleased to see you.
04:39But what are you doing here?
04:42I was going to my auntie's.
04:44But I haven't been there for a long time and I lost my way.
04:48But what are you doing here?
04:50I've been following this yellow wool away from the common, he explains.
04:55Wool?
04:56What wool?
04:57This. Here, look.
04:59And it led me straight to you.
05:04But...
05:04Margot looks down at her basket.
05:07Oh, dear.
05:09It's part of the patchwork quilt I was taking to my auntie.
05:12It's been unravelling along the way.
05:16Oh, yes.
05:17You've lost some of the yellow squares.
05:21Oh, well.
05:22It's no use going to auntie's now, says Margot sadly.
05:27Let me take you home then.
05:29But we're lost, aren't we?
05:32No.
05:32We can follow the wool back, can't we?
05:36Oh, yes, of course, agrees Margot happily.
05:40Rupert starts to wind up the wool as they follow the yellow trail.
05:43Oh, Rupert.
05:46I don't like it in the woods.
05:48I'll be glad when we get out.
05:52The noise sounds nearer.
05:56Hey, hey.
05:58This is fun.
05:59Round and round I'm winding.
06:02Lovely worm I'm finding.
06:04Some of it I'm eating.
06:06Oh, Rupert Bear I'm eating.
06:08Spring chicken, exclaims Rupert.
06:13I found a lovely long yellow worm.
06:16I'm on my autumn holiday and I'm having a lovely time.
06:21But, but, Rupert starts.
06:23Hey, hey.
06:25It's lovely fun.
06:27Round and round and...
06:29Oh, it seems to end in your hand, Rupert.
06:33Rawr.
06:34And what do you want it for?
06:36You don't eat worms.
06:38Rawr.
06:39Do you?
06:41But that's wool, not a worm, silly.
06:44And that was our trail to take us out of the woods.
06:47That's too bad, isn't it?
06:50Oh, dear.
06:51I'm a bit tied up now.
06:53You're tied up and we're lost.
06:56If we undo you, will you help us find the way back to the common?
07:01Rawr.
07:02Oh, well.
07:03All right.
07:04Come on, Margot.
07:05Let's unwind him.
07:07Rupert and Margot hold on to the wall.
07:09Rawr.
07:10Round and round I go.
07:12Jumping high and low.
07:14Rawr.
07:15Where am I?
07:16I don't know.
07:18There, says Rupert, as the spring chicken is freed.
07:22But all that unwinding has made him giddy.
07:25Rawr.
07:26Rawr.
07:26I do feel funny.
07:28Rawr.
07:29Come on, then.
07:31Which is the right path back to the common?
07:33Rawr.
07:34Oh, I'm dizzy.
07:36Rawr.
07:37Oh, this way, says the spring chicken a bit unsteadily.
07:40Rawr.
07:42Put that tree in the way.
07:44Rawr.
07:44Come on, Margot.
07:47Here we go round the trees in the wood.
07:50Trees in the wood.
07:51Trees in the wood.
07:53Never mind the singing.
07:54We want to get out.
07:55I'm doing my best, aren't I?
07:57Rawr.
07:58Oops.
07:58I nearly fell over.
08:00The poor spring chicken is still very giddy.
08:02Rawr.
08:04Rupert and Margot are following doubtfully.
08:06Rawr.
08:08But look, exclaims Rupert.
08:11We're back at the log where Margot was sitting.
08:13You've taken us round in a circle.
08:15Rawr.
08:16Well, it's not surprising.
08:18I'm still going round in circles too.
08:22Rawr.
08:22I'll have to go and have a rest.
08:24Rawr.
08:25And he hops away.
08:28Well, he's not going to be any help now.
08:34Suddenly, Gypsy Granny appears before them.
08:37Oh, I didn't hear you, exclaims Rupert, delighted to see her.
08:42Rawr.
08:43We Gypsy people can move round silently, the old lady explains.
08:48Will you be able to help us?
08:50You see, we're lost.
08:53Oh, yes, I can help you.
08:54Just follow the cuckoo, she says.
08:57Follow the cuckoo.
09:00Follow the cuckoo?
09:02But you don't get cuckoos in autumn.
09:04They've all flown away.
09:06But Gypsy Granny has already gone out of earshot.
09:10Just then, there is a noise.
09:15Listen, Margot.
09:18Yes, it's a cuckoo.
09:19Over this way.
09:20Come on, we must follow it.
09:23They follow the sound along the way.
09:26Come on, it seems to say.
09:29The trees thin out.
09:31And then they've gone.
09:33They're on the common.
09:34On and on.
09:35At last the chariot there they spy.
09:39And to the cuckoo say, goodbye.
09:43Mrs. Bear listens to their story, while Margot and Rupert have a late tea.
09:48And Margot's wool is just the same colour as the pullover you're making for Gaffer George, Rupert finishes.
09:54Mrs. Bear, would you like to have one of the squares from my quilt?
09:59Oh, thank you, Margot.
10:01That is kind.
10:07Oh, now I see.
10:09It was our cuckoo that brought us out of the woods.
10:12I thought there shouldn't be any around in the autumn.
10:16Thank you, Mr. Cuckoo.
10:17Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone is telling his name.
10:39Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone come and join.
10:45Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert the Bell, everyone come and join in all of his games.
11:00Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, Rupert, R
